After over three decades of Candlemass, the doom metal crown is still firmly in their possession. The Dio/Sabbath formula spawned this entire branch of heavy metal and it is all great. If you do not know what Candlemass, doom metal or Dio/Sabbath stand for, in a nutshell it is not anything in the range of funeral, sludge, stoner nor death doom. Doom metal is majesty in mid-to-slow tempo under the hood of crunchy, sinister and melodic heavy metal. It is perfect metal. I find no bad album in this collection, actually I do not even find an average or sub-optimal entry here. This is doom metal nirvana! Candlemass have not usurped their royal status. I find no disappointment ever in their black light discography, but I still have my favorites and this might be the late 90s albums (the two awesome Abstrakt Algebra, Dactylis and 13th Sun), or it might be the Robert Lowe albums (mid-to-late 00's) - so heavy, or the Epicus live recording of 2011, or the original Epicus, who fucking knows, aaah, tough choice. But those late 90s releases have a subtle flavor of 70s that makes them special. Anyway, Canlemass rule forever and the new giant release The door to doom is not going to alter this domination. Light up the Candlemass and bring out your dead! Remove brackets and unzip: [the door to zer] !ZER Candlemass ZER!
